The Projman Application

Import Resourcein Data Set Window

This window enables you to import a SAS data set that contains resource information. Projman assumes that the selected data set is in the format appropriate for input to the CPM or PM procedure. For more information, see the section RESOURCEIN= Input Data Set.

When you select the data set that you want to import, you must identify certain variables within that data set. Projman attempts to recognize the variables by searching for some standard names; however, it is likely that you will need to select the required variables. When all the necessary selections have been made and the resourcein data set is imported, the appropriate resources are created.

For a description of standard import options, see the section "Standard Import Options".

Obstype

The Obstype variable should contain values that represent the type identifier for the particular observation. The Obstype values are required to follow the same naming convention as that used by the CPM procedure. For more information, see the section OBSTYPE=variable. This variable must be character, and it is required.

Period

The Period variable should contain values that indicate the specific date for each observation containing resource availability information. This variable must be numeric.

Resname

The Resname variable should contain values that represent the names of resources that have alternate (substitutable) resource specifications. This variable must be character.
